''Mother, are you okay? You haven't touched your food since. What's the problem?'' King Azalea asked, looking concerned. With a practiced fluidness, Grand Queen Seria smiled smoothly and placed her hands on the king's."I am fine, my king. I was just overwhelmed with the allergy episode." Grand Queen Seria smiled, making sure her face conveyed as much concern as possible. "I will go speak with Amelia immediately."She gracefully stood up from her seat and turned to the Earl and Countess of Duxin. "I am sincerely sorry about the peanuts. Be rest assured that it will never happen again.""Thank you, your Highness," the Earl replied good naturedly. The Countess nodded her response and smiled. Queen Seria wove her way through the crowd and found her way to the kitchen."Your Highness." Amelia said immediately the queen walked in. All the kitchen servants paid respect as she made her way to where the head cook was standing."Amelia, Amelia. About the allergy episode.""I am sincerely
Marline looked at the mirror and her reflection stared back at her. She had one stop before leaving on exile. The palace! Yes, the palace. She transformed into a black bird and flew away from her lair, towards the palace. 'I will take a look at those rascals before leaving on exile. I need to lie low for now and plan something spicy to act upon on my return.' She thought as she flew to the palace. She got to the palace and perched on one of the trees in the garden. There, the King and Princess sat on a bench giggling and chattering out loud about the concluded commission. Not only were they talking about the commission but the main reason for their discussion was because of the public compliment their royal mother, Grand Queen Seria, gave to Azalea. ''This is basically the happiest day of my life sister.'' King Azalea cried. ''I understand Azalea. Mother complimenting and giving you credit in public was a huge one. It's indeed the happiest day of our lives as we haven't

''Who could have done that?'' ''I have no idea ma'am.'' ''Alright you can go.'' The twins left the window and sank on the bed. ''The king has been poisoned.'' ''Why would anyone want to harm the king? This seems somewhat fishy.'' Candy said. ''Same thing I'm thinking too, Candy. I feel like this is a setup from someone who wants to put some innocent person in trouble.'' Alicia affirmed. ''Mmmn who could that be?'' Alice asked. ''That's what I can't wrap my head around Night.'' Alicia replied. ''Let's go see for ourselves and know if we can help.'' Alice suggested. The spirit guides became invisible and made for the door with Alicia and Alice, as Malia followed them behind. ''Nah, you can't come with us. Just stay back here. We will be back soon.'' Alicia said to the bird, and with that she closed the door. The twins ran on the palace floors down to the King's chambers. There, they weren't allowed to enter. ''Go back, come back later.'' One of the guards told th
''This place seems very scary and smell of horror guys.'' Alice said as they plunged deeper into the forest. ''I am beginning to have a bad feeling about this princess. How about we just turn back and go home? '' Night asked. ''Keep quiet Night. Why do you have to be a coward all the time? You know how potent the poison is and you also know that the King is dying slowly. Be brave for once.'' Candy fired back at Night. ''Let's not fight guys. Let's stick together and find the peach flower together. '' Alicia pacified the duo. They searched thoroughly for the peach flower but there was none in sight. They plunged deeper and deeper into the forbidden area. Then, they spotted a dim light from afar. ''Ugh?! Is that light? '' Night asked in surprise. ''Who could be living alone in such a forbidden place?'' Alicia asked. ''Do you two think it's a good idea to check it out? Candy suggested. ''Well I don't think it's a bad idea. Who knows, the person who lives there might k
''Tell us about it please… please… please.'' Night cried ''It's a very long dark tale, little one.'' The old lady responded, wearing a sad look. ''Please tell it to us.'' The girls pleaded. The old lady sighed and shaked her head before saying a word. ''A very long time ago, I was the Chief maid of the Grand Queen chamber. I was very radiant and beautiful as the moon like you dear ones.'' She said pointing to Alicia and Alice. ''We lived in fear of Grand Queen Seria, for she was a dreadful being. She seem to be calm now.'' She continued. ''Then one day, the wells and streams in the kingdom began to dry up. The late king sought for several ways to prevent the unaffected ones from drying, but all to no avail. They all dried and became empty.'' The old lady said. The girls listened attentively to the old lady's tale and stared at her face. 'Woah a lot happened before we were brought here.' Alicia thought. ''Ermm… ermmh! '' The old lady coughed before continuing her tale.
The maids took Alicia and Alice to clean them up as instructed by the King, Azalea. The girls had their bath and cleaned up their wounds. It hurted them but they had to bear the pain. ''Awww!'' The twins cried as the maids touched the injuries on their face, with warm soaked towels. After cleaning the girls up, the maids left. Alicia took and placed a flower-like pin on her hair, after parting her hair neatly. The twins then sat in front of the mirror as they examined themselves closely. ''Oh gracious god! You have a deep wound on your chest misses.'' Night and Candy exclaimed. They rushed to where Alicia and Alice sat, to take a close look at the injury. ''Here take this powder and apply it on your chest, it'll heal up in three days.'' Candy removed a powder-like substance from beneath her wings, and gave it to Alicia and Alice. ''But to think of it, could it be that it was the black bird that poisoned the vampire King? We must have been so gullible to believe her li
"Azazel, please get the barbeque stand outside, the others will be here any moment” Alicia called out as she ties Elsie's hair in front of the mirror. “On it” Azalea called back from the other room in the house. “Here, all done” Alicia said to her six year old daughter, Elsie. “I look pretty mommy” Elsie said happily with her tiny voice. “Yes you do, darling. Now why don't you go join the others outside to get everything ready?” Alicia said “Okay Mommy” Elsie said and got off the stool and running out of the room. “No running in the house” Alicia said in a loud voice to stop Elsie from running. She heard her daughter's footsteps slow down before resuming her running again. Alicia sighed but a smile danced on her lips. It has been 14 years since The bluecrest moon was created and by far it was the best years of her life. With a kingdom of their own, her sister close by, their mate and so many children… she wanted nothing more. So much have happened since that day when the vampir
"Alice, quit looking at yourself in the mirror and get ready to come out, all the guests have arrived” Alicia scolded with an eye roll. Her sister was always obsessed with a mirror, it was hard to pull her off it even when there are crowds of people anticipating their arrival. “I'm coming, mom” Alice said sarcastically before turning to join Alicia at the door. “Are you ready?” She asked with a softer tone, she was so nervous, it was why she couldn't stop worrying about her appearance and kept checking herself on the mirror. “No… I swear to the goddess that I'm not ready” Alicia blurted out in a shaky breath. Alice chuckled and took her sister's hand, “I'm not ready too but we have to get our shit together for this important day. It is time to show ourselves to the world and let them see our power, got that? She said. Usually it was Alicia who was stronger mentally and more encouraging, but now it was the other round. Alice couldn't blame her, no one can be strong all the time.
“Dear girls and Azalea, if you are reading this then it means you know that you all are mates. You be wondering how I know this, the truth is Azalea father and I knew all along. Azalea may not remember but he always wanted to visit Anna when she was pregnant, he presence used to relieve her of any pain that the girls were causing her. He was the first to say that it was twin girls in her and he claimed they were his babies. It was already very obvious that you all were mates. I truly apologize to Azalea, you must have been very sad and angry about your father's death, perhaps you think I killed him. I promise you I didn't. Your father was a very good friend of mine, we were good friends until our last breath, I still wished I said goodbye to him in a better way, the last time I saw him we were in an argument. He said he wanted me to take the heirloom and only give the kids when they realize that they are mates because his time was drawing near and I was very angry at him for being
As early as five o'clock, Azalea and the girls went outside the pack house to find out what Louis had hidden so securely, they greatly suspected that it was the heirloom but they didn't want to conclude without seeing it first. After the fun they had all through the night, their bodies wanted to sleep like the other members of the pack but they resisted because they were curious about what Louis was hiding from them all these years. The cold morning air made the girls shiver a little but they kept walking till they arrived at the three tall trees. They were arranged like a triangle, the girls couldn't help but remember the games that they played with their parents there under these trees. It was a place that held beautiful memories for them. “What now? Where do we dig?” Alice asked in confusion. The area between the tress weren't very small, it would take a couple of hours to dig every inch around it. The tri- couple stay quiet and they thought deeply, then Azalea said, “We could
“I'm back lovebirds” Bill said, breaking the moment and walking up to them. It was clear from his beady eyes that he must have shed a tear or two while he was at Louis and Anna's grave. Everyone laughed along with him, when the laughter dies down, he spoke up again, “Alpha Louis, goddess bless his soul, left something for you girls. He had told me to tell you only when you both have found your mate” Bill said. “Really?” The girls chorused in surprise. What could their dad have left for them that can only be discovered after they found their mates? Even Azalea listened with rapt attention. “Yes, perhaps he knew he would not be there to give you in person so he instructed me to” Bill said with a hint of sadness in his voice. “What is it uncle Bill?” Alicia asked. Bill pursed for a few seconds before saying, “When you girls were just babies, your father tattooed some words on you. He told me to tell you girls and your mate to find the tatto
The pack looked a lot different than before, this was probably because the place was being lively again, the weeds were cleared and destroyed houses rebuilt. It wasn't perfect but it was better, it goes to show how much progress they made in just one day of coming here. Azalea and the twins went around giving orders and making sure everything was alright. The wolves weren't scared of Azalea, despite being imprisoned they still knew what has been going on, they knew he was the girl's mates and that was why he released them and brought them back to the pack. They also know of Alicia and Alice sufferings in the vampire kingdom, they were grateful that the girls still remembered them after everything that happened. They could have remained as the Queens of the vampire kingdom and enjoyed a good life with their mate but they didn't, they still had their pack in mind. And as for Azalea, they forgave him when he released them and assist in rebuilding the pack. After the hardwork du
After some arrangement and planning, Azalea and the girls left the kingdom to the long abandoned pack. They wanted to find the heirloom, bury their parents properly and set everything right. Who would have thought the same person who came to ruin the pack months ago, would be the same person to fix it? The power of a mate bond was seemly too overpowered, the moon goddess matched accurately. Azalea left the kingdom to a few trusted aids to take care of, he didn't know for how long they would be gone so he had to make good preparations. The drive to the pack was in a comfortable silence, the girls enjoyed the cool air and also thought about their parents and the pack. They wanted to do right by them and be better daughters and pack leaders. The planned on bringing the pack back to life and their mate was going to help them. It was their sole reason of returning, the heirloom was a secondary reason. When they arrived at the pack, the twin's eyes couldn't help but
“What do we do now?” was the only thing Alicia could say, she couldn't defend her father as firmly as she did before but deep down she knew her father would never try to steal. This case was all too strange. “We go get answers” Azalea answered plainly. “What do you mean? Alice asked, confused and curious. “Perhaps, it's time to visit the pack together. I have postponed our vacation flight, we need to get answers and we need to get it now” Azalea said in a firm voice that the girls seemed to resonate with. “Yes, We need to find out what happened all those years ago and the whereabouts of the heirloom” Alicia said and Alice nodded in agreement. Azalea eyes softened as he heard them, he didn't think they would be so willing to help him find the heirloom even when it meant that their father had taken it. He had been thinking of a way to tell them about it but he didn't know
“Wait… you mentioned that you wanted to obtain some information from my parents, what was that about?” Alicia suddenly asked. Azalea's eyes flashed with an unreadable emotion and he said after a sigh, “I think it's time to talk” The girls ears perked up with rapt attention, they wanted to know what was so important to Azalea that he had to attack their pack with force. Azalea inhaled and exhaled deeply before beginning his narration, “Years ago, your father and mine were very good friends. They were quite close too. I was very young then and you girls hadn't been born, I can only remember little fragments of memories but as I grew older, I understood them more. There was an heirloom that the vampire kingdom had, rumour had it that only a few people had seen it but yet it was so powerful, it was why no one dared to attack the kingdom. Over the years, my father fell very sick, I was fifte
